Rosamond
Rosamond is a feminine given name of Germanic origin, meaning "horse protection" or sometimes interpreted as Latin "rose of the world." The name appears in medieval legend—Fair Rosamond was the mistress of England's Henry II, supposedly hidden in a bower maze.
The name has an old-fashioned, literary quality: Rosamond embroidered by the window.
